Challenge: moving heavy warehouse trolleys every day

Warehouse operators move heavy trolleys and material handling equipment throughout every working day. Long transport routes, repeated starts and stops, and constant manoeuvring through busy warehouses all increase the physical demands of the job.

These repetitive push and pull movements can lead to operator fatigue and increase the risk of musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs). At the same time, organisations are under pressure to improve productivity while creating healthier and safer workplaces.

Reducing physical strain without changing existing workflows has therefore become an important priority for many logistics companies. In the UK logistics sector, reducing push and pull forces supports HSE manual handling guidance and safer workplace ergonomics.

Solution: electric drive wheel for effortless material handling

BIL Group integrates the esense electric drive wheel into warehouse trolleys, providing intuitive powered mobility that makes heavy loads feel significantly lighter. The intelligent esense system responds naturally to the operator’s movement. Simply placing both hands on the sensor handles activates the drive support, allowing the trolley to follow the user’s movement with smooth, controlled assistance. Operators continue working exactly as they always have, but with far less physical effort.

The esense power drive system is available in four configurations: Fixed, Up, 360 and Compact, making it suitable for a wide range of warehouse trolleys and material handling equipment. Designed for solid, dry industrial floors, the system is ideal for logistics and warehousing environments where heavy loads are moved over long distances every day.
